Feathered Friends - Show Me A Photo Contest Round 187

in Feathered Friends3 months ago

Hello Feathered Friends Lovers,

Welcome to #SMaP Show Me A Photo Contest Round 187

I will start with something sad. Yesterday I saw what was left from a kestrel in front of our entrance. The cats had a feast. Which is something natural, birds die, but it is so sad to see it like that. A gorgeous bird that I have watched for months, perching on a jutting pipe not far from home. Visible even with the naked eye and now is gone. I am sorry I started with sad thoughts, but I felt I needed to share them.

Now, since this contest must bring joy and to have fun when you make photos of our feathered friends, let's have some funny photos, shall we? Let's not forget, life is short, we have to enjoy every minute.

Now, what I would like to see is your photo of bird that brings smile.

Here are my examples:

A headless chicken. A swan actually.

And levitating woodpecker.

Sad to see dead birds, it happens, not often. Love the levitating hop you captured now that is a fun capture!

Yeah, the sad part of birding, alas.
Glad you like woody, it was funny to catch it between the branches.

Death comes to every living thing, it is finding time to enjoy life when still hopping up and down having fun.

My point exactly,

Have a wonderful week.

How sad about the kestrel that was part of your daily bird watching routine. Hopefully it died first before becoming part of the "circle of life"
🙌🕊 💔🕊🙌

Yes, some dosages of funny birds photos are definitely in order after what you saw.
♡Much love!♡

I see from time to time pigeon feathers and bones and even crows having a pigeon pie, but never a dead raptor.
